SAB Miller Rolling Cash |
Sell
3449.1 |
|
Buy
3454.4 |
|
Here is a guide to how it works...
The Market | SAB Miller Rolling Cash |
The Spread Trading Price | 3449.1p - 3454.4p |
How the Trade Works | Now you can take a position on the SAB Miller Rolling Cash market to move:
Higher than 3454.4p, or
Lower than 3449.1p
This spread betting market is a 'Rolling' market which means that there is no final closing date for this trade. If you haven't closed your trade and the session ends then your position will automatically roll over into the next trading day.
Note that if the trade is rolled over then you will normally either be charged or receive a small fee for overnight financing based on whether you are betting on the market to increase or decrease. For more details also see Rolling Spread Bets. |
Trading Units | Financial spread bets on the SAB Miller market are priced in £x per penny price movement.
E.g. if SAB Miller moves 50p then you would win or lose 50 multiples of your stake. |
Stake Size per Unit | You choose how much you want to stake per penny, e.g. £1 per penny, £4 per penny, £15 per penny etc. |
Quick Staking Example | As an example, if you had a stake of £3 per penny and SAB Miller changes by 27p, you would gain or lose £3 per penny x 27p = £81. |
